Why

Repeat-stop catches identical spam. Budget catches “many different tools forever” in one session—useful when long WSL tasks burn API quota.

Default: 80 tracked calls allowed; the 81st is denied. Job status tools are excluded by default.

This is a safety rail, not a product license limit. Raise maxCalls or disable if it feels tight.

FAQ

Does this replace dsh-repeat-stop? No. Repeat-stop blocks identical streaks; this caps total calls per session.

Will it block job_ tools?* Not by default — they are excluded so long-running shell jobs can still be observed.

How do I raise the limit? Set config.maxCalls in your profile cordis.patch.yml and restart dsh web.
